Som et museum, der forventes at repræsentere et helt kontinents historie, har Huset for Europæisk Historie et særligt ansvar for at muliggøre polyvokalitet og multiperspektivitet. Hvordan lever museet op til denne ambition næsten ti år efter, at det åbnede dørene? 

I løbet af de første år har Huset for Europæisk Historie opbygget et stort netværk af partnere i hele Europa. Museet gennemførte for nylig pilotprojekter ved hjælp af offentlig deltagelse for at inddrage stemmer fra unge og underrepræsenterede samfund i sine narrativer og rum. Historie Lab Europe bygger på disse tidligere erfaringer for at anvende deltagelsesbaserede metoder i sit arbejde, fra fortolkning af samlingen til praktisk læring på tværs af generationerne.  

Dette deltagelsesbaserede projekt videreudvikler Huset for Europæisk Historie til et tilgængeligt og inklusivt forum for dialog, hvor mennesker og lokalsamfund føler en følelse af tilhørsforhold og handlekraft. 

Den offentlige lancering af History Lab Europe finder sted i maj 2027 og falder sammen med tiårsdagen for Huset for Europæisk Historie.

I 2026 arbejder projektpartnerne sammen om udformning og udformning af deltagelsesbaserede aktiviteter og installationer, der fremmer lokalsamfundets engagement både på museet og på decentraliserede måder.
